Jaime Nared, a 12-year-old girl who stands 6-foot-1, has been told she can no longer play on the boys team of which she has been a member since the second grade, according to a report on the Web site of The Oregonian. Curiously, the timing of her ban came in the wake of a 30-point effort against an all-boys team.

What grade is a 12 year old in? She's been playing in the league since the second grade. If there was a rule against a girl playing in the league - it should have been brought up then. Maybe some of the parents should teach their sons how to play ball instead of being a whiny biatch.
As a side note.... 6'1" at 12 years old... geesh.

We had a girl when I was in middle school 6th through 8th grade who stood about 6'3 and was 300+ pounds. She could have been able to play Oline on our football team.
